What's next for South Jersey teen who asked Justin Bieber to prom?

Truth is, they aren’t saying what’s up. But something is up and we’re all going to find out on Feb. 15.

“I’m teaming up with Corey Clement this time,” said Purvis, the high school senior who asked Justin Bieber to his junior prom and Gabby Douglas to his senior prom. He was turned down by both, but not by Clement.

They aren’t going together to prom 'as bros,' however. It was Clement who put the idea of asking Bieber to prom “as bros” into Purvis' head. As a side note, Clement holds the state’s record for single rushing yards and is committed to attend the University of Wisconsin next fall.

“We joked about asking Bieber to prom as ‘bros’ for a while, but then I went through with it,” Purvis said.

Purvis won’t say who he’s taking to prom this year — or if he’s asking another celebrity, or if his next project has anything to do with prom.

“Right now we’re keeping tight-lipped before the release date of our video,” Purvis said. “Corey and I are good friends, so getting him on board is amazing. He has a creative mind and we work together well.”

As for what’s to come: “We’ll see what happens.”

What we do know is that Purvis and Clement will be releasing a teaser video on Feb. 5 to create a little buzz and drop some hints to what may be in store. They made the teaser video on Tuesday. In the meantime, Purvis has been hyping his next project to his more than 30,000 followers on Twitter and thousands of viewers on YouTube.

The official announcement will be on Feb. 15 with a video from Clement and Purvis.
